Paper Abstract
We demonstrate in-vivo functional imaging of the human retina with Fourier domain optical
coherence tomography employing frequency encoding of an excitation pattern. The
principle is based on projecting a modulated rectangular pattern across the foveal region and
acquiring a time series of B-Scans at the same vertical position across the pattern. The idea is
to modulate the excitation with a frequency that is distinct from the heartbeat and irregular
motion artifacts. Fourier analysis of the time series at each transverse position in the B-scan
series allows assessing the retinal response as change in the FDOCT reflectivity signal exactly
at the pattern modulation frequency. We observe a change in retinal reflectivity within the
region of the outer segment photoreceptor layer exactly at the pattern modulation
frequency.
